| 6 | +# Milestone 5 Meeting Minutes |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +## Meeting 22 |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +**Date:** December 4, 2025 (Thursday, 1:00 PM EST) |
| 11 | +**Attendees:** Amro, Aseel, Banu, Caesar, Safia |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +### Summary |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +- The team reviewed the overall project status, noting that only a few days remained |
| 16 | + and both the **presentation** and the **article** were close to completion. |
| 17 | +- The group discussed the structure of the final presentation, agreeing on a |
| 18 | + **category-based layout** (reasoning, summarization, creative generation, paraphrasing) |
| 19 | + supported by charts, visuals, and short explanations. |
| 20 | +- Aseel led the design direction, and the team confirmed a **road-themed visual style** |
| 21 | + for consistency across slides. |
| 22 | +- The group highlighted key research findings: |
| 23 | + - Open-source models performed surprisingly well in **reasoning** and |
| 24 | + **creative generation** tasks. |
| 25 | + - Commercial LLMs still hold advantages for **highly specialized or complex domains**. |
| 26 | + - Promising future directions include experimenting with larger parameter counts, |
| 27 | + fine-tuning methods, and evaluating performance under different context window |
| 28 | + sizes. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +### Action Plan |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +- **Banu** will compile and document all experiment findings (questions, answers, |
| 33 | + charts) and upload the file to the GitHub repo, to the **'findings' folder**. |
| 34 | +- **Caesar** will continue to work on the **article and 'experiment' folder** of |
| 35 | + the repo. |
| 36 | +- **Amro** will finalize the **main README**. |
| 37 | +- **Aseel** will continue leading the presentation design and **finalize the slides**. |
| 38 | +- **Reem** will complete the **visual summaries** for the article and presentation. |
| 39 | +- **Safia** will work on the **conclusion slide.** |
| 40 | +- The team will meet again on **December 7** to review all components and |
| 41 | + finalize the project. |
